Tom's Creamy Caesar Dressing

Tom 's Creamy Caesar Dressing

 You’ve probably heard by now that the famous Italian Caesar salad dressing was actually created in Mexico, and that’s true. Italian Immigrant Caesar Cardini had restaurants in San Diego & neighboring Tijuana, Mexico. His daughter Rosa claims her father created the famous dressing in his Tijuana restaurant during the US Prohibition years. 

 Also, Caesar’s original recipe did not include smashed anchovies and neither does mine, I have also replaced the classic raw eggs with creamier and safer mayonnaise. So, my take on the dressing is creamier, sweeter and lemon forward. Hope you enjoy this family favorite!
